FAQs
Is the abdo guard included with the jock short?
No, the abdo guard is sold separately and must be purchased independently.
What material is the Kookaburra Jock Short made from?
It is made from a blend of cotton and Lycra for comfort and flexibility.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Kookaburra sizing guide, typically based on waist measurements, to find the best fit for your XL size.
Can this jock short be used for sports other than cricket?
While designed for cricket, its supportive features could potentially benefit other sports requiring abdominal protection, though it is optimized for cricket's specific needs.
How often should I replace my jock short?

Troubleshooting
Abdo guard does not fit securely
Ensure you are using a standard-sized abdo guard and that it is fully inserted into the pouch. Check if the pouch has become stretched over time; if so, consider replacing the jock short.
Discomfort or chafing during play
Verify that the size is correct. Ensure the abdo guard is positioned properly within the pouch and is not digging in. Wash the shorts before first use to soften the fabric.
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive
The cotton/lycra blend offers a snug fit. If it feels overly restrictive, double-check the sizing chart against your measurements. Ensure the abdo guard is not adding undue pressure.
